NHTSA Complaint #10630899 — 2005 FORD MUSTANG

AFTER A LIGHT RAIN I NOTICED WATER DRIPPING INTO THE PASSENGER SIDE KICK PLATE/GLOVE BOX AREA. CAR WOULD NOT START. HAD IT TOWED TO DEALER. STARTED NEXT DAY AND COULD NOT REPLICATE PROBLEM. NEXT DAY, SAME PROBLEM. WATER NOTICEABLE IN PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. SHOOK SMART JUNCTION BOX AND NOTICE WATER LEAKING OUT. CAR STARTED AND STOPPED WHEN SJB SHAKEN. TOOK TO DEALER. REPLACED SJB FOR $750. MONTH LATER SAME ISSUE, THIS TIME CAR SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY IN RAIN. LOSS OF ALL CONTROL, ELECTRICAL AND POWER. COULD NOT RESTART. POUNDED ON SJB AND EVENTUALLY STARTED. GOT IT BACK HOME. NOW BRAKES LIGHTS, TURN SIGNAL, HEADLIGHTS, A/C AND DISPLAY PANEL NOT OPERATING. I AM SURPRISED THAT SOMEONE HAS NOT BEEN KILLED YET. IN TRYING TO SOLVE THIS ISSUE, IT APPEARS THAT THE INTERNET IS FULLY OF THE SAME STORIES. SICKENING. *TR
